Friday night dinner

When I was pregnant, I could hardly function, and certainly stopped cooking a few months in. So it's a real pleasure to jump back in the saddle.

Tonight I'm making (since I currently eat fish)

Humous with za’atar and pine kernels
Middle eastern flatbreads

Baked salmon with pesto crust
Couscous with cardamom, saffron and pomegranate
Green salad with French dressing

Poached pears with ginger and chilli
Romanian sultana cheesecake

I'll let you know how it goes. One of our guests has dropped in home-baked challah, so it's quite The Good Life here in Kilburn.
